Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 72,17,595 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 72,17,595 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,41,514
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1580550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1580550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/75,17/41,595/514 is 1/1580550
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 75,41,514 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,41,514) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(75,41,514) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(75,41,514) = ( 75 × 41 × 514 ) / 1
LCM(75,41,514) = 1580550 / 1
LCM(75,41,514) = 1580550
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
